Quick question on work experience for 175.
Does work experience need to be post qualification or experience prior to a qualification will be accepted? I have 1.5 year of experience prior to my BSc and 3 years after completion. Does any one have an idea about this?
Thanks

By the way, with 3 years of work experience, you will get the maximum number of points, which is 10.
Goodluck

According to ACS Website's FAQs:
33. Does my work experience need to be post qualification?
No, IT experience at professional level gained prior to a qualification will be considered. Pro-rate experience will also be included where appropriate.

Half of my work experience was before and the other half after the date I actually got my degree. Neither the ACS nor DIAC seemed to have an issue with that.
